Supply Chain Risk Management Under Covid-19: A Review and Research Agenda

  • Chapter

Developments in Information & Knowledge Management for Business Applications

Part of the book series: Studies in Systems, Decision and Control ((SSDC,volume 420))

Abstract

A literature review on 35 articles that are published between 2019 and 2020 are made. The focus is on studying the risk management in supply chain under the Covid-19 circumstances. 24 articles out of the 35 articles are directly related to this study. The biggest difference between the Supply Chain Management (SCM) threats and pandemic is that the impact of the pandemic will stay for a long period of time. There are a lot of articles considering resilience in SCM, while less studies are on its stability, robustness and viability. In order for a SCM to be viable, it needs to be stable, resilient and robust as well, based on vulnerability cycle and viability zone.
